SA: DJ Stokie shares new single Amazwe

The track brings together several South African artists in a collaboration that blends vocal performances with amapiano production. The title ‘Amazwe’, which translates to “nations”, reflects themes of identity, gratitude and life experiences.

Musically, the single combines soulful vocals with the percussive rhythms commonly associated with amapiano, a genre that originated in South Africa and has gained international recognition in recent years. The song is led by vocal contributions from Zain SA, while DJ Nana and Neo Soul contribute to the production.

DJ Stokie, known for his work within the amapiano scene, has previously collaborated with a range of artists in the genre. His releases have often combined dance-oriented rhythms with melodic and vocal elements.

‘Amazwe’ has been released on major digital streaming platforms and is the latest addition to DJ Stokie’s catalogue of amapiano recordings. The single follows his previous projects, including the album Shandu Ka Ndaba.
